It’s easy to register your tokens for your school 

Simply go online to www.cookingwithschools.com, find your school, register 

the token code against your school, and the value will go straight into the 

school’s account.

Any book recommendations for the children (and teachers) in Year 5?

Just as a warning to all Year 5- we are going to be doing an OH DEAR readathon system. Each day one class will decide when we need to OH DEAR- OH Drop Everything And Read! That class will sound the siren and alert the other classes that it is time for Readathon! It could happen at any time!

I can’t wait- my pile of books is ready!

The Water Cycle

Posted on March 4th, 2010 in Uncategorized by year5

This song will drive you crazy, but at least you will know the water cycle!

I am running a blog competition. To enter you have to choose a well known song e.g. Old Mac Donald, and then write new lyrics for the song to teach people all about the water cycle. There will be family points and stickers for the best and the most annoying and memorable songs!
